Most people know where the Atlantic Ocean, and it is not a problem. But
if I want to see, for example, where is the Laptev Sea I cannot find it
on the OSM map, not on any layer.
Both the Atlantic Ocean and the Laptev Sea could be marked in Latin
language as Oceanus Atlanticus and Mare Lapteviorum. It would be
understandable enough, in accordance with the scientific tradition, and
exactly as it was marked on the original Mercator's map:
